A Busy Day

We all have busier days  than others. 

Monday was one of  those  days  for.

Even when your retired  from everyday 

work like  I am we do have interests or 

activities  keep us going..

Monday was busy in Seattle  sports. The

Mariners signed current Cy Young Award

winner Robbie Ray to a five-year contract, 

the Washington Huskies named their new

head coach, the Seattle Kraken playing

Sabres in Buffalo and the Seahawks on

Monday Night football in Washington DC 

taking  on the Washington football team.

By the  way that is the name of the team.

No longer the Redskins.  Maybe they will

come up with  another  name. This goes 

along with other  daily things.

Life can be unpredictable most of the time. 

We do the best  we  can. Amen!

Being A Good Steward

In whatever we are doing it is important
that we are good stewards with our time,
money, gifts and talents.

All four areas should be what we do

with our purpose. We do well with our

money then we can help others with

time, gifts and talents. 

Being good stewards means to be wise

as well. We might be able to give money

away but we should have the knowledge

who to give it too. I expect most people

want to have our time, gifts and talents

over money. There are those who can

use our money but will the use it wisely.

Also, how often do they ask or do we 

give because we are generous. There is

the key. 

Being good to our fellow man is important

to. We will be known by our actions. This

is the time of the year to really show off

our kindness although we should practice

all year long. Amen! 

What We Learn This Season

We should live our life in a manner
worthy of Christ. Not an easy task
for any of us.

Our purpose should line up with 

Christ. We should learn this season

what he did and follow him. Take

the words he said to heart.

A good way this next month through

his birthday we celebrate would be

to read one of the Gospels. We can

write down something meaningful

each day we read. It doesn't mean

we have to from every chapter but

something that comes to us.

Enjoy this holiday season and be

the person you ought to be. Amen!

Now is the Holiday Season

I am not up for Christmas or the
holiday season until December
hits.

On Friday my favorite coffee shop

was playing Christmas carols. Not

ready for it but at least they were

playing old time songs you hear

in church instead of the newer songs.

I guess we can say it now officially

the holiday season.  It is a good time

to share our purpose to others. There

are those who need hope and this is

a good time to share our hope.

Though schools and other institutions

call it winter vacation when it comes

up in about three weeks I still consider

Christmas vacation. Instead of saying

happy holidays to say merry Christmas.

Those you can tell are not Christians

saying happy holidays is better thing

to do.  This all depends on the person.

So happy holiday season and Merry

Christmas in four weeks. Isn't hard

to believe the year is almost over

and we look to 2022. Amen!

Be ourselves and kind to one another

Jesus Christ said we are to love one

another.  It doesn't mean we have to 

agree on everything either. We just 

should not be rude or think bad of

one another.


We all were given talents and gifts
to share with one another as well.
We are all created unique and though
some may share some of the same
gifts and talents we may use them in
different ways.


The purpose of our gifts and talents
to share with one another. We are
here to benefit one another. You
become a better person because of
me and I the same of you.


Have a great day and may others
who meet you are blessed even
if you don't say a word or only a
few.

Happy Thanksgiving

I want to wish everyone everywhere a
Happy Thanksgiving!

Enjoy your day whatever and wherever
you are at. We are blessed even in the
most trouble of times! Amen!

Always Good To Hear Good News

I am sure we all enjoy hearing good news.
On Tuesday at my doctor's appointment
about my heart I found out I won't have a
fibulator installed. Instead I will go through
a procedure called "Catheter Ablation".

Most likely this procedure will take place

in a couple months. I see the doctor who

will do the procedure on December 15. 

He will go through with me what the

procedure does and what I should expect.

What I do know is they will go in on one

end of my heart with a catheter that includes

wires. The purpose is to destroy bad cells

causing my heart to beat more often than

it should or what is also known my heart

skipping a lot. This procedure will stop

my heart from skipping. If needed I

could have a pacemaker installed. They

won't know until the catheter is in my

heart.

We always like to hear good news right.

I was hoping for the best and this sounds

like the best. It is important to trust the

doctors in what they are doing and have

the faith God will guide you through.

It will look like I will have to put my

travel plans on hold until February or

later. In the meantime I do my life

purpose right here. Amen!

Today's The Day

It has been more than a month. I find
out today whether I have a fibulator
installed or not.

I am fine with whatever the decision

the doctor says. I trust the doctor and

I know to that I am in the palm of God.

We all go through trials and tribulations

in our lives. This is just another one for

me. I have had a lot of prayer come my

way the last few months. I appreciate

everyone's prayers.

May you be blessed this day. Whatever

you are going through today things will

be OK. Amen!!

Exciting To Do

I have mentioned before how I enjoy
giving people when ministering a
piece of their life purpose. They all
see it makes sense.

If you don't know what your life 

purpose is just think about it for

a few minutes. 

What do you enjoy doing. It makes

up a part of your life purpose. Your

personality and character make a

part as well. 

Since I am able to get into what

a person  is like when ministering

I figured I am going to try something

next. 

When I am at coffee shop to spend 

some time to see a piece of someone

purpose. I am not going to do it for

everyone but maybe  one or two 

people.

I may begin with someone I already

know to some extent. What their

gifts and talents are. 

I figure it is good practice and 

exciting to do. I may even tell

them if I feel the urge to do so.

See whether how close I am in

my thinking of their purpose.

It isn't like I want to get into 

everyone's personal business

but given a little piece about

a person or two. 

Thursday is coming

Thanksgiving is coming up soon. I know
there will be many traveling this week to
celebrate on Thursday. It is important to
stay safe as well. I am not sure what the
airlines rules are but a mask to wear
is in the cards probably.

I am not a big fan of masks but if that

are the rules follow without much fanfare.

I can only wear a mask for a short period

of time. It doesn't feel right for me. For a

while I felt like I could catch covid with 

the mask on. I already had covid and the

shots as well. I know that is a touchy

subject for some as well. So if I were 

to wear a mask for a long period of time

I would remove it for a few seconds on

occasion before putting back on. If I were

on a plane I would go to the bathroom to

remove the mask even if it were the only

reason to go to the bathroom. 

It is important to be thankful whether we

have a lot or a little. Everyday is precious

especially when we don't know how many

days we have. I know the holidays can be

rough with losing those close to us. Amen!

Let the sunshine in

This week we didn't have the rain like we
had last week. Wednesday was really the
only day it rained having a downpour for
a couple hours or. Fortunately it happened
about 30 minutes after my morning walk.

I only recalled where we saw sun for any

significant amount of time. Though it didn't

rain most of the week it was overcast most

of the time and looked like it could rain 

anytime soon. That is how it works here

in Western Washington. The major reason

it feels we get more rain than we actually

do. Don't tell anyone please. lol

Today we are expecting some sun as well.

How long it will last I don't know. I hope

all day as rain is expected back on Sunday.

It is important to keep a level head since

we do have so many cloudy days besides

the rain. 

Have yourself a wonderful weekend. We

have the holiday season to look forward too.

Amen!

Making Changes In Our Lives

Whether it is changing our diet like
I am because of my heart and weight
it is important to change our lives.

The older we get changes have to

occur whether it is diet or exercise.

I am amazed by some who don't 

do the changes.

There are other changes that may

happen as well. We should have

a healthy mind well as body.

Next Tuesday I will find out 

whether I have to get a fibulator

installed to help my heart out

or not. I may need to do further

changes or continue on the path

I am on right now.

The thing is our lives can be

as exciting in our older years

as our younger years depending

how we take care of ourselves. Amen!

Meditation is Popular

These days meditation is popular. I
ask who are many people meditating
to. A god they don't know or a god
in their mind.

As a Christian we can not only pray

but we can meditate on the things of

God. We can wait for hearing God's

voice as well.  I am not sure whether

that is part of pray or meditating.

Actually thinking further we can hear

God in our prayers and when we are

waiting to hear from God. He is actually

always with us so we should hear from

God right away if we are willing to listen.

Anyway a few tips for all of us to think

about for sure.

Again I want to thank you for viewing

my blog. You have anything you like

to share check in and write in the comments.

I am sure others would like to know as 

well as me. Also you can pass on to 

others you know. 

Not only do I want to share what is going

on I want you to learn while I am learning

at the same time. We all have a story to

tell whether a lot of words or only a few.

Amen!
